Helpful neighbourhood pharmacy. They have a random split of classic pharmacy stuff with random home decor or seasonal things. The staff is friendly but really cramped floor space if you have to navigate with a stroller.

Awesome Pharmacy!! Everything you need and then some. Tons of unique gift items and undergarments as well as clothing, aside from the regular pharmacy products. This place is very unique. Don't be surprised if you go for deodorant and come out with a pile of beautiful home decor, personal items, clothing for the little ones and more. The staff is always lovely. I really can't say enough about this place. Always on the ball, always very helpful and professional.

Best pharmacy PLUS the beautiful gift section, Bathtique. Staff are all friendly and attentive and I’ve never had a trip there without getting help with anything and everything I need. Pharmacists are all professional and friendly and floor staff are really helpful. Not to mention you can ALWAYS find beautiful gifts in the Bathtique section WITH in-store wrapping. Love it there ♥️

Wide selection of products, and helpful staff. Staff are friendly. Store inventory is midway point between a pharmacy and general store, so it has many quality goods outside of what you would expect at a pharmacy. Many of the products are European or Foreign imports.
